Thanks clayop.. your brackets on the other post hinted the answer. Xeroc don't worry your instructions are really good.

Another problem, now when I try to start the witness, I get a decimal parse error for --witness-id "1.6.5155"

Code: [Select]

parse_error_exception: Parse Error
Can't parse a number with two decimal places
    {}
    th_a  json.cpp:277 number_from_stream

    {"str":"1.6.5155"}
    th_a  json.cpp:478 from_string
rethrow
    {}
    th_a  witness.cpp:88 plugin_initialize
I have tried to configure the witness-id in the config.ini but I get this warning:

Any thoughts ?

Oh .. thanks for pointing this out. I will fix the wiki as soon as I get back to my computer .. sorry for the trouble

Don't worry xeroc. I did.

And I also solved it :

The syntax is

Code: [Select]

import_balance betax [5....] true
It is expecting an array as it says in the error doh!

That's the problem what I experienced.

I have to be very silly but I am also stuck on the :

Code: [Select]

7 bad_cast_exception: Bad Cast
Invalid cast from string_type to Array
    {"type":"string_type"}
    th_a  variant.cpp:530 get_array

I am using the wif of the balance,  using the output documented in the wiki:

Code: [Select]

Each of these balances can be investigated via:
BitShares0.9: >>> blockchain_get_balance BTSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
....
"asset_id": 0,                                     <- asset_id (0: BTS)
"data": {
  "owner": "BTSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWNER", <- address
      ...
  "balance": 0,                                        <- balance
  ...
The required part (the owner of the balance) is denoted as owner. Pick one or more address for BTS balances and dump the corresponding private key(s) with:

BitShares0.9: >>> wallet_dump_private_key BTSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWNER
"5......." # the <balance wif key>


edit: english code -> english

Great! I'm in!

The import process described in the how-to is a stop-gap measure.  We have already done significant work to make that easier.

At the end of the day it will be as easy as:

1. export BTS 1 wallet
2. import into BTS 2

If you have a mac, download the draft version of BitShares 0.9.2 which has a new api call
https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares/releases/tag/untagged-4166986045ff28284dc4

link doesn't work for me ...

@xeroc
I'm stuck in importing my balance keys. The error is

Code: [Select]

7 bad_cast_exception: Bad Cast
Invalid cast from string_type to Array
    {"type":"string_type"}

Can you help me?


Edit: I found it. [balance wif key]

[VoR0220]

Beautifully done.

[clayop]

Setting up another VPN (as same as my current VPS) now. Hopefully I can successfully settle my testnet delegate there
